I’ve been putting off writing about his because
I don’t really know what to say. It’s hard
to face the fact that one of Lyon’s most talented players, someone who used to be a fan favorite, has turned into such a ...

This has got to be the worst year
for Lyon in terms of injuries. Important players keep
dropping like flies, right when things are getting crucial. Last weekend against Marseille, Jeremy Toulalan and Fred were both carried off the pitch within the ...

Olympique Lyonnais is an easy club to play
for. They possess the best squad in France by
miles, have a lot of money and resources, wear cool black kits in Europe, and could win domestic titles with even a blind baboon coaching them. All Lyon ask of ...

If you believe English footie tabloids (because they
never lie), Sir Alex Ferguson is a huge fan
of Karim Benzema (who isn’t?). Apparently, Manchester United is prepared to offer either a flat fee of €32m or €9m + Mikael Silvestre and Louis ...

Lyon have been keeping tabs on Cruz Azul
striker Cesar Delgado for the past few months and
recently sent Remi Garde to watch him a few times. It turns out that Garde was so impressed with Delgado that Lyon made an offer for his services. It’s ...

Here we are at the last game before
winter holidays! It seems like only yesterday when Lyon
were losing every other game and having key players pick up serious long term injuries. Time does fly, doesn’t it? Anyway, back when people were ...

Hello, my lovely readers! Sorry about the extent
of my absence - I had intended to take
up posting right after Christmas but ended up taking a few extra days off. But don’t worry, not that much has happened recently to warrant posting. So I ...

I can’t believe how quickly winter break flew
by. I’ve been enjoying the “respite” from blogging duties
by not having having to worry about game previews and recaps, but now it’s back to business. Our first game ...

(by Inara) January 18 --- It’s like every
blade of grass is determined to ruin Lyon this
season. How else can you explain the fact that Lyon have lost four defensive players to serious, long term knee injuries in the space of six months? FOUR...

Dear Lyon, I know I’ve ignored you the
past couple of days, but I just had to
get away from you. Now that I’ve had sufficient time to think about things, I have a few things to say. (more…)

Wow, I didn’t think it was possible, but
Juventus have hit an all-time low. I mean, yeah
they like to match fix and win imaginary penalties and otherwise engage in sleazy transfer dealings. I can forgive all that. But as for their latest bit of ...

With only three days left in the transfer
window, Lyon’s mercato is wrapping up, and as far
as I know, these two are the last arrivals (unless Lyon do bring in a DM). Ederson has been a long time Lyon target, and today, he signed from Nice for ...

After months of fighting negotiating, the Ligue de
Football Professionnel (LFP) have finally struck a deal for
Ligue 1’s broadcasting rights for 2008-2012. You can read my previous updates here and here , which explain the situation in some ...

I don’t know about you guys, but I
personally am not ready to face those Mancs. And
neither, I think, are the players. I’m being optimistic when I say that things aren’t quite so good over at the Gerland, and it’s obvious that ...

Today, a Portuguese financial website published the top
50 highest earning footballers in the world . I
don’t know whether to be reassured or disappointed that Lyon have only two players on the list. Or the fact that Marseille and PSG each have ...

Life is good. How can it not be
when two of Lyon’s most important players - in
fact the most important players - commit several more years to Lyon? This morning, it was announced that Jeremy Toulalan extended his contract by another two years ...

You guys must all know that I have
a serious crush on Nice’s Hugo Lloris . I’d
welcome him at Lyon eight days a week, no questions asked. With Gregory Coupet in the twilight years of his career, Lyon need to get a new goalkeeper fast ...

I don’t know about you guys, but I
for one am bored with match previews! Unfortunately, due
to a hectic month at work, that’s all I seem to have time for. So I thought we’d do something different today. Instead of the usual news and ...

Since Lyon are out of the Champions League
(again), they might as well finish the title race
with a bang, right? To do that, they need to erase decades of history and gain a convincing win at Monaco, something they haven’t done in eight years. ...
